Integrating explicit and implicit contemplative practices into the clinical dyad

Fiona Brandon, MA, MFT, MPS.  (2 CE Hours)

​

Fiona Brandon is the Director of the Nalanda Institute’s Compassion Based Resilience Training (CBRT) and core faculty of the Embodied Psychotherapy Program. As a licensed psychotherapist and clinical consultant, she integrates Buddhist psychology, depth psychology, expressive arts therapy, dream imagery, and sensorimotor psychotherapy in her work with adults and couples. 

 

This 2-hour workshop will offer participants practical tools and inspiring ideas for integrating mindfulness and compassion practices into their work with clients. The practices can help clients regulate their nervous system while gaining new insights into their healing process. During the training participants will be guided in the practice of mindful sensitivity and tonglen. After each practice a case study will be presented. The case studies will illustrate practical ways for integrating the practices into clinical work in explicit and implicit ways.

The experiential training will allow participants to learn how to:

  1. Introduce contemplative practices into the clinical dyad

  2. Use meditation with clients who do not meditate

  3. Use meditation with clients who have familiarity with contemplative practices

  4. Incorporate mindfulness and compassion practices into the healing process

The training is helpful for new and seasoned clinicians. You do not need to have a background in meditation to benefit.
